Mark Trow, PGA Professional
"I first started playing golf at 8 years old with my dad in the back garden, I was then lucky enough to find a very proactive golf club who really promoted junior golf (one of the reasons I'm now so keen to give something back).
My passion for golf continued to grow and I represented my club, county, country and Great Britain throughout my amateur career. At the age of 18 I then took a scholarship in the USA and played collegiate golf while completing a sports psychology degree. This was a huge learning curve for me and allowed me to play with the best players and learn from the best coaches.
When I returned at 22, I started to plan out my coaching career and at the age of 29 opened my first Growing Golf Academy of which there are now 3 academies in Kent. I enjoy coaching a variety of players of all ages and all abilities, I try to ensure each player understands their own technique and enjoys the process of improving!
Seeing so many junior golfers starting to play, enjoying the game and aspiring to be the next star player is what makes my job so rewarding every day!"
